Titanic is just another example of a hosta being rushed to market before adequate garden testing. Profit before quality. I've really slowed down on purchasing new and hot hostas as soon as they hit the market just because of this. Tissue culture has really exacerbated this problem.

Mine has shown hardly any variegation, but it's one of my favourite hostas. The margin - such as it is- appears late in the summer and you have to look close to see that it is there. However, the leaf shape and the size and form make it stand out in the garden. I would not be without it. It is larger than sum and substance and more commanding. Mine does not revert. It's up there in my top ten.
